Yankees A-Rod Brings Food To Restaurant

In general, A-Rod can buy any restaurant he eats at, so why has he been packing a lunch?

To be sure Alex Rodriguez, with a 10-year $275 million contract, doesn't have to worry about paying the check, but he's been bringing his own food to restaurants lately. The NY Post reports Rodriguez is looking out for his diet as he gets ready to start spring training.

The youngest player to hit 500 and 600 home runs, Rodriguez admitted using steroids from 2001 to 2003 when playing for the Texas Rangers. He's coming off a bewildering 2011 season, in which he batted .276 with just 16 homers and 62 RBI's while playing in just 99 games because of various injuries.
